16985. Shouting In the Air

1. When the Lord shall come in glo­ry,
And shall call His ran­somed home,
There’ll be shout­ing in the air.
When we meet our bless­èd Sav­ior
And our loved ones who have gone,
There’ll be shout­ing in the air.

Refrain

There’ll be shout­ing in the air
When the Sav­ior shall ap­pear;
What re­joic­ing there will be when Je­sus comes;
When the dead in Christ arise,
And they see that Heav­en’s gained,
There’ll be shout­ing in the air.

2. What a day of great re­joic­ing
When the trum­pet loud shall sound,
There’ll be shout­ing in the air.
It will wake the sleep­ing na­tions
To the earth’s re­mot­est bound,
There’ll be shout­ing in the air.

Refrain

3. What re­joic­ing of the faith­ful,
When they hear the glad ac­claim,
There’ll be shout­ing in the air.
What a wel­come for the Sav­ior,
When He comes to earth again,
There’ll be shout­ing in the air.

Refrain
